Filed: 2005-11-08
Abstract: An information storage medium, a recording/reproducing apparatus and a recording/reproducing method are provided to increase data reproduction efficiency. The recording/reproducing apparatus includes: a write/read unit for recording data on an information storage medium and reading data from the medium; and a controller for controlling the write/read unit to record a replacement block by logical overwrite (LOW) for updating data recorded on the medium in a first area of the medium, record a replacement block for replacing a defect block generated on the medium in a second area of the medium, and record a second replacement block for replacement by defect of a first replacement block in the second area if the defect is detected while the first replacement block is being recorded in the first area to perform the logical overwrite of an original block recorded in a predetermined area of the medium, generate a defect list (DFL) entry including location information of the original block and location information of the second replacement block in order to indicate the replacement state, and move location information of the first replacement block in the second replacement block. As a result, an area for replacement by defect and an area for replacement by LOW are discriminated from each other, and data reproducing efficiency can be improved by effectively managing replacement information though the replacement by defect due to a defect generated during the replacement by LOW.

Title: Near Field RF Commuincator
Inventor: LEFLEY ALASTAIR
IPC: H04W4/80
Filed: 2010-04-23
Abstract: A near field Radio Frequency communicator 100 includes a demodulation circuit 114 whereby a clock signal can be derived 115 from a received RF signal in an active RFID tag during modulation from multiple sources using different operating voltages. Overvoltage from H-field signals inductively coupled to the antenna 102 is avoided via a shunt regulator 310 which controls the antenna's impedance load in accordance with the data signal 117, such that the RF voltage induced between the two antenna outputs is regulated below a maximum but remains above a minimum threshold voltage for deriving the clock signal when the device is in reception (target) mode. Controller 107 also prevents high voltages occurring when the device is in transmission (initiator) mode.

Title: Systems and methods for determining whether data includes strings that correspond to sensitive information
Inventor: BUTT ALAN B
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2011-05-31
Abstract: A system employs an interval scanning technique to identify potentially sensitive information, where bytes of data are analyzed in periodic sequence. Once potentially sensitive information is identified in data, the data is further evaluated for known delimiters adjacent to the beginning and end of the potentially sensitive information. A data string that is not surrounded by known delimiters is disregarded while a data string that is surrounded by known delimiters is further evaluated. Potentially sensitive data may also be searched for known identifiers of sensitive information. A fixed number of bytes of the data string may be analyzed using a trie algorithm, in which the value of a first byte is compared with the value of a corresponding first character of the known identifier. This process is repeated for the value of a second byte and the corresponding second character, and for a value of a third byte and the corresponding third character.
